#marketupdate, IMO from on-chain is sideways then bullish in maybe a week or so.

Some downside risk if stonks tank, a lot of rallying in the DXY (USD strength) which is typical of money moving to safety.
The first thing to look at is to answer "are we in a bear market". Welp, bear markets start when no new buyers enter to support price and that aint happening, we have healthy growth of new users joining the network.

Let this frame all other metrics.
Of primary interest is capital rotation from stablecoins back into the crypto markets (I'll say that's mainly BTC since alt coins are reducing in dominance).

All of that dry powder sitting on the sidelines has started flowing back in.
We had a huge sell off by previously strong hands (looks like noob buyers that bought 1m - 6m ago). All of those coins that dumped onto the market needs time to be re-accumulated, this is happening now.

Price action looks like an accumulation bottom because of this.
Exchange flows (2 week = solid red, 1 week = dotted red) showing that buying is happening but not yet at an exaggerated pace, so likely we have some time to burn before upward price action can launch.
So now let's look at some short range indicators...

If you know we are in a bear market (which we know is the case from user growth metrics) then SOPR resets near 1.0 is a great time to buy the dip.
NVT Signal is in a no-brainer buy zone. (short term signal)
Using NVT to value the network, we are statistically oversold from fundamentals at historic levels.

Note we were devoid of a mania top before the sell-off. This sell-off happened when price was well within fair value. So it doesn't match the start of bear season.
My only concern for downside risk is if we get a major correction in equities which will pull BTC price downwards no matter what the on-chain fundamentals may suggest.

Noticing USD strength on the DXY, which suggest some investors moving to safety in the USD.
Raw on-chain data for this analysis is from @glassnode
Correction. "if you know we are in a BULL market"

HOW TO STAY POOR

If you save in cash under the mattress, the government #debasement would have stolen half of its value in 10 short years. Image
HOW TO NOT STAY POOR

#Gold is "how not to be shafted" technology.

People for 6000 years have held it in order to not get butt reamed by their governments. Image
HOW TO GET WEALTHY

Have you noticed we once own ploughs, our parents had cars, we have mobile intelligent supercomputers, and our kids will by tickets to Mars?

You can own a slice of that trend by buying stocks.

It easily beats a lump of yellow metal. Image

I've been on RnR for a while, but...

Here's the chart I like best to set the scene.

Less inventory = bullish

Until the start of Aug, we've been in a bearish stance with an influx of 100k coins (Germany, MtGox, DOJ) while speculation has been rife creating more paper BTC. Image
The price crash during the start of Aug flushed out much of the paper with a nice round of liquidations... open interest got wiped.

That's a healthy reset of open value (paper bets). It's really hard for BTC to climb when there's overheated speculation in the market. Image
This mid-June assessment is still in play.

BTC price action needs to get really boring.

I feel like we are 66% the way there. Much of the speculation has left, we still need more of the spot BTC to be absorbed.

Here's the 5 macro signals I'm looking closely at right now for #Bitcoin.

3 bullish, 2 bearish...
Miners capitulation is over, it's one of the most reliable bullish indicators.

Hash rate is recovering, the price and hash rate bottom coincided with upgrades to next gen hardware hitting the network.

M66s went live last week.

S21 Pros this week.

Hash rate set to scream. Image
Miner capitulation is a very responsive indicator. The breakout was preluded with hash rate recovery; price responded within a day. I gave early warning of this.

When it kicks in we normally have months of bullishness.

Market overview of the current state of #Bitcoin demand and supply.

- miners ⛏️
- German govt 🤡
- ETFs 🏦
- Futures 🎲🎰

Punctuated in emojis for ELI5ers.

🧵
Miner capitulation.

Are we there yet? Nope.

Until hash rate climbs, as seen in a ribbon recovery, the local environment is bearish. Miners are selling off, happens every time after the halving.

Almost always a good buy entry happens when the ribbon recovers.

🧸→🐂 Image
The star of the FUD is the German govt selling of their confiscated BTC.

Remember the movie2k guys hodled from 2013, getting way over 100x appreciation to around $3b.

Germany now has custody, uh oh... immediately decides to sell 🤡.

Best comment 🥇: "this is bullish, when was the last time Germany made a good decision?"

But I digress.

They have sold 10k BTC so far.

Looks like market orders, which further dumps the price reducing their own money. 🤡

Rumour has it they have now moved to an OTC desk to let the pros handle it.

This will reduce the severity of price impact but not negate it. OTC desks will go to the markets to fill any mismatch between buyers and sellers.

39.8k BTC left to sell.

🤡🧸Image

I don't usually do short time frame price action as it's the domain of gamblers. But worth a break down of what's happening given the fear in the market...

We've been flushing out the leverage, 62.5k was the target to get most of it.

Until...
...speculators kept adding to new long positions, just adding more fuel for more liquidations in a cascading long squeeze.

Bridging us down to the 58k cluster, which just got taken out. Image
Superimposed on this liquidation squeeze, we have a post halving miners capitulation. Miners are on a BTC selling spree to pay for hardware upgrades due to the old hardware no longer being profitable. The weakest miners closing shop and being liquidated.

ETFs are buying...

Institutions are buying...

Who the hell is selling?

2024 brought a mass of commentators looking at ETFs flows, as if that's all that matters.

What matters is total demand and supply.

Here's a 101 thread on how the modern #Bitcoin market works.
First, let me tell you who is selling.

The OGs. They are selling

They have more BTC than all the ETFs put together... 10x more.

And they sell into every bull market.

This pattern is as old as the genesis block.

Chart below: the age x amount of coins being sold. Image
We are now in the modern age of BTC.

Paper BTC has flooded the market since 2017.

Futures markets.

If you want to buy BTC, it used to be you had to buy real BTC.

You can now buy paper BTC. Thus a no-coiner can sell you that paper.

Together you have made a synthetic BTC.
